[SOLVED] [Three] Extractor Problems - Missing MPQs and ad.exe issues

[suommynona]

Hello!

I've downloaded the client as instructed in IceReaper's topic.

Ad.exe was crashing on that.

Redownloaded following Madmax's info.

Didn't help.

Used WoW Regeneration.

Din't help either.

Redownloaded throught IceReaper's info.

Ad.exe went ok.

But..

Not found Data\wow-update-13164.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-13205.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-13287.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-13329.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-13596.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-13623.MPQ

Not found Data\wow-update-base-14545.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-base-15005.MPQ
Not found Data\wow-update-base-15050.MPQ

Rest of the MPQs processed ok.

Consequently a bunch of these wild evil things appeared (what does err=2 mean?):

Can't open World\Maps\Azeroth\Azeroth_22_9_obj0.adt, err=2!

And extractor hung up again.

Help, please? Any tips where I can get the MPQs without having to redownload the whole client?

Alternatively, can someone please tell me what worked for them - from downloading the client all the way to successfully extracting dbc, maps, vmaps and mmaps?

Thank you for any help.

those MPQ messages are all 'normal' errors - the extraction tools leave a little to be desired at times when it comes to errors messages

when using the vmap extraction tools are you running them as administrator, might be worth trying that

I ignored those MPQ messages as 'normal' errors, reextracted and mangosd.exe wasn't giving me any more .map errors, server started.

Thank you, solved.
